Wonder if he'll change parts and take a heavier penalty if they dish out a penalty.

Sorry for the late info Stan. There'll be no rain.

Thanks. Had me worried but knew you'd come good.

Red Bull looking utterly dominant in final practice. Genuine chance of pole position for Sergio Perez later. Mercedes six tenths behind at the moment.

Which part of the track is best to be on? Is pole a good spot here? Seen quite a few races here where going into turn 1, you have 3 cars side by side.

Mercedes spanked the Bulls in the end. What a bizarre year 😂. Tsunoda arguably ruined both the senior team's final runs there but I don't think they had the pace anyway.

Bottas has had Hamilton's number all weekend as well. We know how it ends if they're running 1-2 though just like Red Bull.

Some concern with Red Bull's rear wings. They've had to tape them up and seem to have compromised some performance for reliability. I get the feeling they'll perform better in the race, ought to be interesting but that's ended up being Mercedes' best qualifying of the season after being over half a second down in third practice.

Just a wrong place at a wrong time, it's unfortunate. A bit weird to have a slow driver at that point there, but then it's not really Tsunod's fault. Although I don't think it mattered in the end anyway; the pace of the Red Bulls didn't look good enough to beat the Mercs there.

Only thing I'd say about pace is that it happened in Max's strongest sector. At best he may have got second not pole. 

Anyway, there no yellow flags, he didn't need to stop. But I think he played it safe.

Quite a few people think third isn't a bad spot to be on the grid.

Also, RB be fine. Merc strategic team are likely to fuck things up 🤣

Yeah he lifted expecting yellow flags, so could maybe have improved to 2nd, but even that is not a given.

Let's be honest, the top 3 is crashing out in Turn 1, no?... xD

I reckon Max and Lewis get better starts than Bottas. Lewis on the right, Max to the left and Bottas middle. All 3 side by side going into turn 1. This would be a great scenario.

Lewis and Max DNF and a genuine fight between Valtteri 3.0 and Checo for the win would be a cool race.

I can still see Red Bull having the edge on race pace though, which will make things interesting if the order stays unchanged at the start.
